You need to get a few satsuma trees. They grow in the same type climate. ( i assume your in a med climate, mild winters ) I know everyone has their childhood favorite citrus. But i highly recommend you get these. 4 trees will produce more than you can eat. A very good fruit with thinner skin, easier to peel than a orange. Similar to a mandarin but taste better. An orchid of these will make you $. They are common here.

green because it's good for currency - but Lagarde still sleeping 7.5% inflation. {image}
I dont see it in print yet, cnbc. GM sales down 20%, Toyota down 14%. That has to weigh on E car exports. Lagarde is in a bad place: Fight inflation, and kill exports/jobs further. The ez economy dont have a bright outlook.

U.S. shipped NG cost about 7X more in Germany than the U.S. ( didnt find that in print) ? i heard a politician say it.
In the chart about 50% more. I think this is Russian. Energy prices are killing the EZ. The war makes it and inflation worse.

The most expensive cost in heavy manufacturing is energy. Electric is double in Germany compared to USA.
The chart is normal delivered gas prices. It cost more off the ship from the U.S.

Credit Suisse Research summarizes its tactical bias on EUR/USD and USD/JPY in Q2.
Our expected EURUSD range for Q2 is 1.0750 – 1.1400, targeting 1.0800 for end-Q2, keeping a quarterly range downgrade we have had in place since 2021. Levels above 1.1300 represent good entry levels for fresh shorts from a quarterly risk-return perspective," CS notes.
"For USDJPY, the test of the BOJ’s YCC commitment likely makes the Q2 range as wide as 118.00 – 130.00, with our old end-Q1 target now the base and our current 123.75 target as a pivot point," CS a

{quote} I dont know about the rest. U.S. built a port for NG. They are expensive. The U.S. has all the NG Europe needs. Shipping it is another story. But we do ship some to Europe.
Thanks for the answer. Then Europe needs to find alternatives. Not that they won't buy from Russia, but with such a belligerent neighbour there should be valid alternatives.

Anytime you ship something its added cost. Most industry in the U.S. has NG piped to it. Industry builds where the NG (power lines) pipes are (energy). Industry builds next to interstate roads, rails, large fresh water supplies, and navigable water. It just make financial sense. The energy used to be coal. That's why car makers located in Michigan (Great lakes area). Because it was close to energy (coal). It takes 2 tons of coal to make 1 ton of steel. Pig iron was shipped to the auto makers/steel mills, on the Great Lakes. Now days many mills use a electric furnace. They stick 2 electrodes in a pot. Now days many mills are in other places because they use scrap steel. To make steel, you need iron and coal. Metallurgic coal or coke is added to iron. Scrap steel already has coal added. To make a long story short. Energy is the most expensive cost. In steel making, car making or other heavy industries. Raw materials are usually second. Labor may be less than 10%.

If Russia/Putin wasn't so corrupt. Nobody could compete. Russia would be one of the richest countries ever.

NG in the USA is almost 7x as much as Russia. Germany could never compete. If Putin wasn't so crooked. Russia has everything needed to be a financial center. The Russian economy could be #1 or #2, with the resources Russia has. Russia should be far ahead of China. That's why the ones w/o energy need to find another cheaper way. Nobody wants to be a slave to Russia cutting off the valve.
